I shot these on 20 Jan, using my 40D attached to my microscope.

cool shots, how did you get time to focus and shoot them before they totally melt?

Thanks.
In order to be able to photograph the flakes before they melt, you must have your work area, microscope and slides below freezing. The day that I shot these particular flakes, it was about 8 degrees outside and it was 12 degrees inside where I had my equipment set up.
